Can I get to the other side?

As Chunyu Qiong led his troops into the city from the north gate, they found that the gate leading to the inner city was not opened at all and was still tightly closed.

"What's going on?"

Chunyu Qiong frowned when he saw this. Just as he was about to ask the soldiers guarding the city wall to open the gate quickly, he heard a loud noise behind him.

He turned around and saw that the gate of the north gate was closed. The dark doorway could no longer let out a ray of light.

Chunyu Qiong's face suddenly changed when he saw this. He looked up and shouted to the wall: "Cui Zhubu! Why are you closing the gate?!"

No one responded.

The surrounding walls stood tall and blocked the light. In addition, it was getting dark, making the city dark and gloomy, and the silence was a bit weird.

"Cui Zhubu! Cui Zhubu!"

"Cui Lin! Get out of here!"

Chunyu Qiong shouted several times in a row, but there was no response. This made him panic in his heart and cold sweat broke out on his back.

He suddenly realized that he was too careless.

The inner gate of the city is not open, and the outer gate is closed. Then this place is a big jar, with no way to the sky and no door to the earth!

He should enter the city with the army...

No! That's not right!

The army cannot enter the city, this is a trap!

Chunyu Qiong suddenly woke up and shouted to the cavalry around him: "Everyone! All retreat to the city gate!!!"

"This is a trap!"

As he shouted, rows of soldiers holding bows and arrows stood up on the walls around the city, which originally had no soldiers!

Cui Lin stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at Chunyu Qiong and the 100 cavalrymen trapped in the city wall, and said with disappointment: "What a pity, I thought there would be more troops, but there were only 100 people."

Chunyu Qiong's eyes were wide open, staring at Cui Lin and cursing: "Cui Lin! You Cui family dared to betray the general! You guys——"

"Shoot!"

Cui Lin didn't waste any words with him, and waved his hand with a cold face.

Countless sharp arrows were fired at the same time!

The many soldiers trapped in the city wall had no cover at all, and they had no power to fight back under these sharp arrows, and could only become living targets!

Just a round of arrow rain, all the soldiers in the city wall were killed or injured, only Chunyu Qiong survived under the protection of several guards, but he was also hit by several arrows and was seriously injured.

He looked at the bodies of many guards around him, feeling sad and angry. As soon as he raised his head, a sharp arrow quickly enlarged in his pupils, and he only had time to curse one last time.

"Cui Lin! I'll kill you--"

...

"Damn it, why is there no movement?"

Han Meng spat on the ground and couldn't help cursing.

Now it was getting dark, Chunyu Qiong had been gone for half an hour, and there was no news. Could something have happened?

Ju Su looked calm, looking at Yecheng in the distance, frowning, and the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became stronger.

But at this moment, a soldier came to report: "Military Supervisor! General Chunyu sent someone to deliver a message!"

"Cui Lin said that Yuan Xi had ambushed and killed Zhang Liao in the palace. After hearing this, General Chunyu led his troops into the city first and asked the military supervisor to lead the army to help!"

This news cheered everyone up!

Han Meng was even more delighted and said, "Great! Zhang Liao is dead, and the 10,000 Xuzhou troops are leaderless. Next, Yuan Xi will definitely go to the military camp with the imperial edict!"

"The military supervisor gives the order! Let me lead the troops to the south gate to intercept Yuan Xi, and you quickly enter the city from the north gate and control Yecheng!"

Han Meng said in high spirits.

He couldn't wait any longer.

Can't let Chunyu Qiong take the credit!

Ju Su hesitated again and again, but still ordered: "General Han, you quickly lead a thousand soldiers to the south gate to intercept Yuan Xi!"

"General Qu, you lead 10,000 troops to enter the city from the north gate. After the army enters the city, immediately control the four gates. I will take 4,000 troops here and stay here for support!"

Although he decided to act, he still had to keep a safety net and lead 4,000 troops to continue hiding in the mountains and forests, so that he could provide support at any time if anything went wrong.

Qu Yi and Han Meng didn't approve of Ju Su's arrangement in their hearts, thinking that he was too cautious.

The North Gate was clearly under control, and there were 15,000 troops, so why should they be so cautious?

But Ju Su was the military supervisor after all, and Yuan Shao had told them to take charge of this trip, so they could only follow orders.

"Yes!"

Han Meng and Qu Yi both clasped their fists and accepted the order.

Soon, the two of them led their troops to the South Gate to intercept Yuan Xi, and went to the North Gate of Yecheng to enter the city.

...

South Gate.

Yuan Xi rode out with the imperial edict in his hand, accompanied by several guards, and headed towards the South Suburbs military camp slowly.

But if you look closely, you can see that he is shaking uncontrollably at this time, and his eyes are glancing around from time to time, obviously in a very nervous mood.

"Shouldn't they send too many troops to intercept me?"

"General Zhang, General Gao, you must come in time, otherwise I can't save my life..."

Yuan Xi was quite scared.

Today he was going to be a bait to attract Yuan Shao's troops to come and kill him. He only brought three or four personal guards with him. Let alone encountering Yuan Shao's army, he would die even if there were hundreds of people!

But while he was afraid, he suddenly realized something.

Although this mission was very dangerous, wasn't it the time for him to show his loyalty and ability to His Majesty? After completing this mission, His Majesty would definitely pay more attention to him!

"I have to be alert and not lose face!"

"Your Majesty must be watching me!"

Yuan Xi mustered up his courage and headed for the southern suburbs military camp with his head held high. He even looked forward to the enemy's attack.

It would be better if there were more!

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he saw a gray line rushing towards the intersection of the distant horizon and the setting sun. It was a cavalry army!

"Run!"

Seeing this murderous army, Yuan Xi's face changed immediately. Without any hesitation, he clamped his horse's belly and galloped towards the southern suburbs military camp!

This army was naturally the cavalry led by Han Meng. When he saw Yuan Xi turn around and run away, he couldn't help but sneer.

"Humph, want to escape?"

"Chase me!"

Han Meng whipped his horse whip violently and accelerated his speed to chase Yuan Xi!

He must kill Yuan Xi outside the military camp!

...

Temporary station of Yulin Guards

A cavalryman rode up to Zhang He and reported with a bow: "General! We have found the enemy's traces! We are chasing the bait and rushing to the military camp!"

"Good!"

Zhang He was riding on a warhorse. When he heard the news, his eyes were stern. Then he turned to look at the three thousand elite Yulin cavalrymen who were ready to go behind him. He raised his spear and roared loudly.

"Brothers! Today is the day to make achievements!"

"For your majesty! Follow me to kill the enemy!"

"Kill——!"

Three thousand Yulin cavalrymen set out from the southern suburbs camp and went straight to Han Meng to intercept and kill Yuan Xi's one thousand troops.

The moment the Yulin Guards ran out of the southern suburbs military camp, the huge momentum attracted Han Meng's attention, and his face changed immediately!

"Not good! There is an ambush!"

Han Meng was a battle-hardened general. When he saw this scene, he knew that the other side was well prepared. But now the momentum of their cavalry has risen. If they forcibly stop the charge, they will inevitably fall.

Even if they could stop, they would not be able to turn around and evacuate in a short time. They would soon be caught up by the enemy and then slaughtered!

"Damn it! Shit!"

A trace of cruelty and murderous intent flashed in Han Meng's eyes, and he shouted sternly: "Prepare for battle!"

When two men meet on a narrow road, the brave will win, and this is even more true for cavalry charge.

Charge may not necessarily win, but cowards will surely die!

"Kill--!"

These 1,000 cavalrymen are also elites who have followed Han Meng for a long time. After hearing the order, they did not hesitate at all and accelerated their charge!

Two cavalry armies with a huge difference in numbers.

A loud collision!

Everyone in the Yulin Guard is an elite, and they are equipped with the most advanced weapons and equipment. The war horses under their crotches are also equipped with double stirrups and horseshoes.

Each of them has a white feather on his helmet, which is also the origin of the word "Yulin".

At this time, they are like a snow-white feather blade, and the moment they collide with Han Meng's cavalry army, they directly cut the opponent into pieces!

"How is it possible!!"

Han Meng was greatly shocked. His cavalry was considered elite, but they were completely vulnerable to this Yulin Guard. More than 10% of them were killed or wounded in one round of charge!

Even if there was a huge difference in numbers, it shouldn't be like this!

"What's going on?"

Han Meng was puzzled, but when he carefully observed the confrontation between the cavalry of both sides, he found the problem - the armor on the other side was extremely strong and the weapons were very sharp.

The blades of his soldiers chopped on the other side, and the Yulin soldiers were at most slightly injured; but if they were chopped by the blades of the Yulin soldiers, they would inevitably have a huge wound, and even be cut in half by the power of the warhorse's charge!

How could the equipment of this group of Yulin soldiers be so sophisticated!

Han Meng was shocked, but in the moment he was stunned, Zhang He and Gao Lan had already joined forces to kill them!

"Die!"

Zhang He held a spear in his hand, sweeping in all directions, picking up a cavalryman's body and throwing it at Han Meng!

Han Meng's face darkened, and he lowered his head slightly to avoid the cavalryman's body, and shot back Gao Lan who was coming from the side, and kept a certain distance from them, confronting them on the battlefield.

"You two actually betrayed the general!"

Han Meng stared at Zhang He and Gao Lan, gritting his teeth, the anger and hatred in his eyes almost burst out!

Zhang He said coldly: "The traitor Yuan Shao, who held the emperor hostage, everyone can kill him! We are ordered by His Majesty to fight against the traitor, how can we say betrayal?"

"Since you are here today, then stay!"

Zhang He's spear came out like a dragon, like a meteor falling from the sky, and stabbed Han Meng fiercely!

Gao Lan was not to be outdone, and also cooperated with Zhang He.

Because Han Meng's martial arts were good, and this battle had to be resolved quickly, he didn't care about any rules and just fought two against one!

"Then I will kill you today!"

Han Meng was furious. Facing the offensive of the two men, he was not afraid at all. He went up and fought with them. Every move was dangerous and fierce!

This battle was already a losing situation, so he didn't ask for retreat or survival at all. He just wanted to exchange his life for his life and kill one of Zhang He and Gao Lan!

Only attack, no defense!

Zhang He and the other two generals didn't expect Han Meng to be so fearless and fearless. For a while, they were suppressed by Han Meng, but this was only temporary.

Zhang He's martial arts were better than Han Meng's, and with Gao Lan's cooperation, the two quickly mastered Han Meng's attack rhythm and gradually reversed the situation.

Finally, after more than fifty rounds, Zhang He found an opportunity to knock Han Meng off his horse with a shot, and then Gao Lan made up for it and pierced his heart!

Han Meng held the spear tightly, trying to fight back, but he couldn't do it, and the spear fell to the ground powerlessly.

He died.

Zhang He exhaled a breath of foul air and continued to rush into the battlefield.

About a quarter of an hour later, the battle of the Yulin Guards was basically over.

All the 1,000 cavalrymen under Han Meng were killed!

The white feathers on the heads of all the Yulin Guards were almost bloody, swaying in the wind under the last afterglow of the setting sun, which was very dazzling.

…

North Gate.

Qu Yi led 10,000 troops to the outside of the city. Now it was completely dark. He looked at the city wall without any fire and the closed city gate below, and was puzzled.

"Why is there no movement? The city gate is not open?"

Out of caution, Qu Yi sent a deputy general to ride alone to knock on the door.

When the deputy general came to the outside of the city, he heard sharp whistles before he opened his mouth. In just an instant, he was shot into a hedgehog with his horse!

At the same time, countless arrows shot out from the city wall, densely packed, and fell on Qu Yi's army like raindrops under the cover of night!

"Oh no, we've fallen into a trap!!"

Qu Yi roared loudly, grabbed a soldier and blocked him in front of him, resisting the oncoming rain of arrows that could not be seen clearly.

But his army was not so lucky. They had entered the range covered by the rain of arrows, and were shrouded in the night. They were unprepared and suffered heavy casualties.

Hundreds of people were killed and injured in just a few breaths!

Qu Yi was furious, dropped the corpse in his hand that had become a target, turned around and ordered: "Retreat! The whole army retreats!"

He had already understood that Chunyu Qiong who entered the city was definitely in danger. Today's so-called night attack was a complete trap!

"Yuan Xi, Zhang Liao... How could they unite!"

Qu Yi gritted his teeth, he was unwilling to retreat like this, but Zhang Liao's 10,000 troops must have rushed here now.

If they don't retreat now, it will be too late!

Under Qu Yi's order, the army quickly turned around and retreated, but they were still a step too late. The north gate was wide open, and countless soldiers rushed out!

The leader was Huang Zhong!

In order to save time and rush from the southern suburbs, they chose to cross Yecheng directly and rush out from the north gate, catching Qu Yi's army off guard!

"Kill the traitors!"

Although Huang Zhong was old, his momentum was extremely high, and his roar was full of energy, not inferior to that of young people at all.

This was his first battle after joining the emperor. He was determined to eat Yuan Shao's army even if he died, so as not to let down His Majesty's kindness to him!

Huang Zhong led only a few hundred guards to rush into Qu Yi's army, rushing and killing wantonly, leaving only corpses wherever he passed. It can be said that he killed gods and Buddhas!

Seeing this, Qu Yi was furious: "Old man! Are you looking for death!"

After saying that, he raised his spear to fight Huang Zhong!

The two spears collided in the night, bursting out sparks, illuminating their old and young eyes, but equally full of murderous intent!

In the clear night sky, the crescent moon was like a hook.

What a murderous night!

At the same time, Zhang He and Gao Lan also led the Yulin Guards to the north gate, intending to intercept Qu Yi's army from behind and keep them here completely!

This battle must break Yuan Shao's backbone!
